Diane: For some reason here in Michigan, I see pop ups at garage sales and on lawns at arund $500.00. Never gave them much thought and didn't check out the condition. Michigan winters are pretty tough here if they are left out??? In the grocery stores they have these magazine with all kinds of camper trailers, etc for sale by owner. Have you checked those out? A couple hundred mile trip might be worth it to get a good deal? Good luck, Jonezee
